i have 2 lan arranged computers with windows xp sp2 with all the fixes and updates till today
but one of them, that works as a server, for some reason i've been trying to discover for weeks, after two hours on, is almost unable to communicate with this pc
it's a wired connection and all the ips and gateway are configured properly
i already tried to use a different pci card but still have the same problem
i only solve it by rebooting but i wanna know what's causing it
can anyone help?

after two piles of badly burnt dvds (over lan) i remembered that it was an athlon xp 2000+ ...
i reduced the fsb from 133 (1666mhz wich should be his normal speed) to 100 (1250mhz)
and now i don't have any problem running it..
amd no more.. :(:(:(
